You Can't Follow

Album: Goodbye [2012]
Author: Isak Klasson © Elefant Publishing

In search for truth I'm leaving    

This town a place for competing       

Reflecting grey ideas 

Packed, yet miles between us   

 

But nature is green and glimmering

A dream so pure and shimmering

Mountains, fields and oceans

 

I must go I really have to see

I know generations went before me   

Search for something I picture as real                 

Away from disappointments I want to be free   

You can’t follow you can’t follow

 

I must go I really must go

I must escape my chains 

I will reach out to know

You can't follow

Don't fight it, face it, get by

Just wait in faith I am telling you 

You can't follow you can't follow

 

But nature is dark and windy                               

A dream so cold I'm freezing 

Only lonely noises                

 

I am scared I can not do it

Give up everything for the unknown and new

For roots and berries, for marvelous views

I stay disappointed I take it out on you

I am not going I am not going

 

I won't go I really won't go

Just blame my past I'm too clueless to know 

I'm just a shadow      

There are things that I'll never know

Just blame my past I'm too clueless to go 

I'm just a shadow, just a shadow                                

                        

There are things I must give up now

Cause I won't escape my chains I'll never know     

If there's a rainbow, a rainbow                                    

I won't go I really won't go

I won't escape my chains I'll never know

If there's a rainbow, a rainbow
